If you want a compact home wireless speaker with a unique design and superior sound, Bang & Olufsen has you covered.

The company has unveiled its latest model, the Beosound Emerge. It turned out impressively slim, made with premium materials, and offers all of the specs and features that one could ask for. And what makes it even more unique is that thanks to its design, the speaker can perfectly blend into your bookshelf.

What Is the Beosound Emerge?

The Beosound Emerge is a home Wi-Fi speaker created by Bang & Olufsen in collaboration with the London-based design agency Layer. It is one of the latest speakers produced by Layer, and it entirely lives up to Bang & Olufsen’s standards. Everything starting with the product’s extravagant design up to the ultra-wide sound makes the Beosound Emerge a premium home speaker.

According to Layer founder Benjamin Hubert, writing in the Bang & Olufsen press release, the idea to create such a speaker was taken from "the compact form factor of a book." Therefore, together with Bang & Olufsen, the company built an elegant, thin, portable speaker capable of producing full-power sound.

B&O always places a significant focus on the materials used for their speakers and the Beosound Emerge is not an exception. It is also made of the highest-quality materials such as natural oak, aluminum, and knitted fabric.

Even B&O itself describes this speaker as the "manifestation of the perfect balance between elegance and natural beauty." And just like all other speakers designed by this company, the Beosound Emerge comes with a premium price tag.

The speaker is supposed to hit the selected European markets on April 15. It will then become globally available from October 2021. If it's available in your location you can buy the Beosound Emerge from the Bang & Olufsen site.

The Beosound Emerge: An Elegant Speaker With Premium Sound

The unique and premium design is not the only thing that makes this speaker unique. Here's what B&O claims about the Emerge:

Created with a passion for music, design, and craftsmanship, Beosound Emerge is the perfect balance between the elegant beauty of an interior object combined with the technical performance of a speaker, built for longevity.

So, despite the slim design of the Emerge, the speaker "delivers ultra-wide, 180-degree sound." Which means that even when the speaker is tucked away, it should be able to produce a big and clear sound.

Moreover, the Beosound Emerge is a part of Connected Speakers. Therefore, if you already own other Bang & Olufsen speakers, you’ll be able to merge them through Wi-Fi, Chromecast, or AirPlay 2 to enjoy a seamless listening experience throughout your home.
